Chapter 245 Wine can dissipate energy and turn into ghosts
Once upon a time, there was a butcher named Xu Fang in a certain place. He once carried two jars of wine on his way at night. When he was tired from walking, he put down his burden and rested under a big tree by the roadside.
At that time, the moonlight was bright and bright, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.
Suddenly, Xu Fangting saw a "wuwuwu" sound coming from the distance, which was eerie and made people feel scalp numb.
Xu Fang looked up and saw a ghost emerging from the grass. It looked extremely scary.
He was so frightened that he quickly hid behind a big tree, and involuntarily grasped the pole carrying the wine jar, trying to defend himself.
I saw the ghost coming to the wine jar Xu Fang had placed there, dancing with joy, opening the lid and drinking.
In a short while, the entire jar was finished. The ghost still wanted to drink from another jar.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened it halfway, the ghost fell to the ground, apparently drunk.
Xu Fang watched helplessly as his bottle of wine was drank, and he hated that ghost in his heart.
He plucked up the courage, walked out from behind the tree where he was hiding, looked at the ghost lying on the ground, and felt that it didn't seem to have any special abilities, so he raised the pole in his hand and hit the ghost fiercely.
However, what surprised him was that even though the pole hit the ghost, it felt like it was hitting the ghost in the air.
Xu Fang did not stop there. He continued to beat him repeatedly with a pole.
Gradually, the ghost became lazy and exhausted, collapsed on the ground softly, and then turned into a ball of thick smoke.
Xu Fang was afraid that the ghost would change and escape, so he kept hitting it more than a hundred times.
The thick smoke spread flat on the ground, gradually spreading out, like a faint ink stain or a misty veil, spreading thinner and thinner, and finally disappeared.
Only then did Xu Fang stop, thinking bitterly in his heart: Let you drink my wine secretly! Now it’s all gone!
After hearing this story, some people think that the so-called ghosts are the remaining Qi left after death. Over time, the Qi will disappear bit by bit. That's why it is said in "Zuo Zhuan" that new ghosts are bigger and old ghosts are smaller.
There are visible ghosts in the world, but I have never heard of anyone seeing the ghosts from ancient times like Fuxi and Huangdi. That is because the Qi has disappeared over time.
Wine is dispersing. Therefore, wine is used to prepare medicines used by doctors to promote blood circulation, induce sweating, disperse stagnation, and dispel cold.
The ghost in this story had only a little bit of anger left, but after drinking a jar full of wine, his anger was dissipated.
The blazing Yang Qi vibrates and evaporates and melts the weak Yin Qi, so it is natural for this ghost to dissipate. Therefore, it is destroyed by wine, not by being beaten with a pole.
A person who has given up drinking thinks this way: "Ghosts are good at changing things, but they are beaten because they are drunk. Originally, people were afraid of ghosts, but the ghosts were cured by people after drinking alcohol. Indulging in alcohol and not Those who are awakened should remember this lesson and quit drinking as soon as possible.”
But a person who loves drinking said: "Although ghosts have no form, they still have feelings, and they also have emotions of joy, anger, sorrow and joy. Now this ghost drank too much, lay down in a coma, and finally disappeared. This is It’s back to its true nature. There’s nothing more profound about the joy of drinking!”
Buddhism regards Nirvana as the state of bliss. How can those who are busy making a living realize it?
And "Zhuangzi" says: This is also right and wrong, and that is also right and wrong (meaning: in this case there is one standard of right and wrong, in that case there is another standard of right and wrong, that is, there is no objective standard of right and wrong)! That's probably what you mean, right?
